Currently, there is no published data pertaining to the safety and efficacy of OASIS in conjunction with Iodoform gauze strips. OASIS is indicated for use after the wound bed is free of infection and the standard of care has been performed. Alternatively, Iodoform is typically used when there is an increased concern of advancing bioburden or infection in the wound. Thus, these two products would not be indicated for concomitant use.
Lastly, iodine based therapies generally have a negative impact on the function and efficacy of growth factors. The progression through wound healing relies on growth factors to enable recruitment, signaling, and differentiation of multiple cell types that assist in the formation of granulation tissue, re-epithelialization, and closure.
Ultimately, the decision to use a product or combination of products should rest on a clinical judgement in which perceived benefits outweigh any potential risks.
